New York Giants vs Cincinnati Bengals 2024 Week 6: How to watch for free, online live stream & start time | Goal.com US

The New York Giants are set to host the Cincinnati Bengals for Sunday Night Football at MetLife Stadium, with both teams eager to keep their playoff hopes alive.

Joe Burrow and the Bengals have had a frustrating season, but there’s a glimmer of optimism as all four of their defeats have come by six points or fewer. They risk finishing with a losing record for the first time since Burrow’s rookie season due to their struggles in tight, one-possession games.

The Giants pulled off a surprising victory last week against the Seattle Seahawks, despite injuries sidelining Devin Singletary and Rookie of the Year contender Malik Nabers. With a record of 2-3, if head coach Brian Daboll can inspire his team to maintain that level of performance consistently, New York could quickly turn their season around.

Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch and listen to New York Giants vs Cincinnati Bengals NFL game, plus plenty more.

New York Giants vs Cincinnati Bengals team news & key players

New York Giants team news

Daniel Jones has greatly benefited from the breakout performance of rookie Malik Nabers, who is making a strong argument to have been the top wide receiver selected in the 2024 draft. Nabers leads the NFL with 35 receptions, accumulating 386 yards and three touchdowns, though he is currently listed as questionable due to a potential concussion.

If he is not cleared to play, Wan’Dale Robinson will step up as the next primary target, having recorded 32 catches for 230 yards and two touchdowns this season. Devin Singletary is stepping in to fill the void left by Saquon Barkley, but he is averaging only 55.3 yards per game with two touchdowns to his name.

Cincinnati Bengals team news

The Cincinnati Bengals were widely expected to make a playoff push this season, but they find themselves in an unexpected 1-4 hole. All four of their losses have been by seven points or fewer, and they’ve faced off against some of the league’s top quarterbacks, including Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and the surging Jayden Daniels. However, with an elite quarterback in Joe Burrow, the Bengals must start finding ways to win. In their matchup against the Ravens, Burrow racked up 392 passing yards and five touchdowns, yet it wasn’t enough to secure the victory.

Burrow is currently leading the NFL with 12 touchdown passes and ranks sixth in total passing yards with 1,370. He averages 274 yards per game and has thrown two interceptions so far this season. In that tight contest against the Ravens, Burrow had an outstanding performance, but Cincinnati missed a field goal in overtime that could have clinched the win. The holder mishandled the snap just before Evan McPherson made contact with the ball, resulting in a missed kick.

The running game has struggled since the departure of Joe Mixon in the offseason. Second-year back Chase Brown, out of Illinois, is leading the rushing attack with a mere 46.0 yards per game. Meanwhile, Ja’Marr Chase delivered an exceptional performance against Baltimore, finishing with 193 yards and two touchdowns. Chase now boasts 493 receiving yards, ranking second in the league, along with five touchdown receptions. Tee Higgins has also returned to health and contributed 83 yards in last week’s game.
